Sverigestolen was first released as early as 1975 and has over the years become one of the most popular and used office chairs. With its origin from driver seats in buses and trucks, it is well proven both in terms of comfort, ergonomics and quality. This year when Be-Ge celebrate 90 years, another version is being launched, Sverigestolen 820. Traditionally, we have always celebrated anniversaries with our customers with a new chair, for the 90th anniversary, we chose to produce a completely new model, says Henric Arvidsson CEO of Be-Ge Frapett.
The choice fell on Sverigestolen. The interest in a new model of Sverigestolen has been great. It is and has always been a strong brand for all these years and we want to highlight it even more, says account manager Mattias Olsson.
It is designed and based on the best of ergonomics and comfort features, providing an office chair for long and demanding sitting. Ergonomics and today's requirements are still in focus, but the new model has new mechanics and a seat that is more body shaped. For me, it is important that it feels like a chair you are sitting in and not on, says Joakim Petersson, who has 30 years of experience in the industry and is the person who has developed the chair.
The standard fabric is Renewed Loop, which is 100% recycled from textile waste and recycled polyester. For us, it is important to protect our environment and therefore the choice fell easily on a model where the environment, traceability and recycled materials are in focus, Henric continues.
Sverigestolen has always been a source of inspiration for many office chairs on the market. In the 90s it was the most repurchased office chair and we hope that the anniversary chair and its comfort, ergonomics and quality can interest both new and old users.
